'I find a note on the fence where I feed [the cats]': Wounded colony cat goes missing, TNRing person fears the worst but finds the feline found his forever home

Some people wish they could adopt all the cats. Well, at least the ones who don't have a home yet, the ones who are now facing the winter months in the streets. No roof over their heads, no safety out there, no warmth to keep them cosy. This thought hunts a lot of cat lovers, but some of these feline fans try to do something about it - they set out to care for the strays, the cats who don't have homes. They take a colony of cats under their care, feeding the felines so they won't starve, TNR them for health and safety, and generally being the benevolent pawrent - even if they cannot take the cats inside.

And when you take care of a whole colony like that, you care about each and every cat. And that's exactly the love and care level this one TNRing person had regarding her cat colony. When one of the cats was seen wounded and alone, she tried to take care of him - but he wouldn't let her. And taking care of a cat who is afraid of receiving help is difficult (especially when you have many other cats to take care of). And one day - he disappeared. She feared the worst had happened - that he succumbed to his wounds, or was too cold to keep a survivable body temperature. But a single note on the fence where she feeds the cats made her realise - this cat has found his forever home.

No fireplace can warm the heart of a feline fan this winter quite like knowing a sweet stray won his forever home.
